It's fun to spam Counter Throw and get away with it
The thing I find most interesting is that Mii Brawler's counter throw can counter jigglypuff's song and Joker's bullets.
That's probably because Joker's bullets don't actually count as projectiles, oddly enough
sing triggers all counter
it kind of deals 0.000000001 damage and sleep

It's a solid move tbh i used to use it but tbh i just love using burning dropkick and doing suplex suicides
I love how my entire moveset is unviable, being exploding side kick, thrust uppercut, head on assault and onslaught
"head on assault is unviable" counterpoint: it's so fun though
@@jay-games Imagine getting suicide spiked by it.
Thrust uppercut is very viable, brawler doesn't have any bad up-specials. Head on assault is also viable, the bad move for that slot is definitely counter throw, although feint is so ridiculously good that any other move is hard to make a case for.
@@KLIXORthe
Thrupper’s probably as close as you can get for that slot. And, to be fair, anyone running the rest of those moves is probably using it in a super Unga-bunga way where it _really_ sucks (compared to other options)
I loved this video. Subbed! As a Mii brawler main, seeing more people talk about the character always makes me happy. I also had no idea suplex kills around 300%. I just thought the move had no knockback growth lol. I know what to fish for at 300%!
I think Mii Brawler is the best Mii. He’s the fastest, strongest, and won a major.
Mii Brawler is ranked low A-, which compared to Mii Swordfighter’s low D+ makes it pretty clear which the best is (Gunner is C+). Ofc tier lists aren’t everything but Brawler is up there for a reason.
A few details I'd like to mention:
2:02
"Running FMP means you use the utility of Shotput" instead of "Running FMP means you lose the utility of Shotput"
4:15
The music abruptly cutting got me, haha. And I agree.
Leet is insane.
13:16
Nah, it isn't confusing at all. Normal FJ always goes through platforms. FJ Kick stops at the platform. It's always consistent like this.
Other than this, great guide! Very much appreciate your work.
My man BigLord
By far the best mii brawler moveset guide I've seen. Great job!
Also, I feel it is important to mention that everyone's play style is different so you should utilize all of the moves to see which ones actually help YOU out the most instead of going with what is popular. For example, with me personally, I agree that shot put/SAK/flip kick are the best respective moves for their slots, but I always feel like suplex is lackluster against someone who knows the matchup as they just find it more annoying than actually dangerous (although imo its by far the best move against someone who doesn't know the matchup ;D), so I mainly use dropkick to multiply my recover options. Also, while I use flip kick most of the time, if I know I'm gonna fight a Banjo I always switch to Counter.
Once again, amazing vid :).
This is really good! I’ve always struggled against mii brawler since I didn’t know what he was even doing. This will be very useful to me.
I used this video to construct my Brawler moveset, and... it was an interesting ride.
My original moveset consisted of Shot Put, Suplex, Thrust Uppercut, and Feint Jump. But three out of the four moves I began to have problems with:
- I couldn't do crap with Shot Put
- Thrust Uppercut didn't give me enough vertical recovery for my liking
- I hate Feint Jump with a passion
I switched Shot Put out for Flashing Mach Punch because I knew Exploding Side Kick was out of the question. And FMP is a surprisingly good kill confirm move.
Suplex I was fine with, but I had to swap it out for Burning Dropkick because I wasn't running Feint Jump anymore.
Thrust Uppercut was replaced with Soaring Axe Kick, and it's definitely much better. Unfortunately, I'm guilty of spamming it.
And for Down Special, I knew Head On Assault probably wasn't going to be great, so I chose Counter Throw. I don't use it often, but I make it work from time to time.
I respect that. Use the moves that you feel most comfortable with🙂
honestly that sounds pretty good especially as a mixup. SAK can kinda play the game for you - add in a bit of counter throw killing at 30 and you've got yourself a solid set.
Why don't you like feint jump? It's definitely Brawler's best special.
Also, Thrupper is objectively the best on platform stages (so it's bad on FD) and Heli-Kick kills at 40 by the ledge
@@BringerofEternalNoise I know it's their best, but I couldn't use it at all. I tried to learn it, but it never sent me the way I wanted it to and it just annoyed me to no end.
@@real_abender if you're facing forward, you'll jump forward and land facing backwards. If you B-Reverse it, you'll jump backwards and face forwards. If you don't use it, you pretty much have to use BDK, because the recovery is so bad.
I remember when I was a prepubescent Ike main back during the brawl days who spammed up b. That connection was pretty niche but it somehow applied to me.

@@ightboss2151 do you still have the same opinion
I love how you separated onslaught from the rest of the side specials 💀
I’m so glad a video like this exists, cause now I can just send them this if they want to know what specials I’m using and what they do. Great vid!
(Can also confirm suplex’s psychological trauma on triplats)
Fantastic video! Crisp and clear. Loved the step by step explanations!
Excellent and very useful video with clear explanations. Like the pros and cons presentation as well as the final verdict
I am just starting out with mii brawler and this video was exactly what I needed. Thank you!
This is great content, great work
I've been playing Miis since the game first dropped and I actually managed to learn a lot from this video
Genuinely the most interesting video I’ve seen this week
I really wish Onslaught activated on shields. Not enough to break and still punishable but not completely invalidated. That way Your opponent would have to shield the entire thing in order to be safe and actually need some effort to punish it. And also increasing the distance would be good too. I really like Onslaught but I feel like it should be more useful as more than a kill move, and even then it’s not that good because all your opponent has to do is press the shield button. If Nintendo will continue updating SSBU, I would really like them to buff Head on Assault’s killpower, Onslaught in everything other than killpower and damage, Gale Stab’s distance, and Laser Blaze’s lag. I feel like Nintendo kinda did the Miis dirty in those points I listed, it was nice to get those buffs in 12.0.0 but I think more buffs to those moves would be needed in the long run.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk
Fantastic video, great job
*The Best combination based on this Video Is this:*
*Neutral-B:* Flashing Match Punch.
*Side-B:* Suplex.
*Up-B:* Thrust Uppercut.
*Down-B:* Feint Jump.
Flashing Match Punch take stocks very early, so ESK is usless (beacuse Jab Lock is the best use for this move, but we can do the same thing with FMP and more safe). Shot Put is decent for spacing or breaking some character's recovery, but most of characters has a decent recovery (or has grab recovery, like Joker or Ivysaur) Can make the move usless. Too much lag and poor range.
Onsalught is Flashing Match Punch but with dash and more unsafe, so forget it. Burning DropKick is decent, yeahh, but is preety bad for attack (beacuse is slow) so the best use is recovery, but Feint Jump is better, so it's like having both (FJ and Suplex). Thrust Uppercut is the best one in Up-B's, beacuse you can take stocks preety early, the Soaring Aax Kick is decent, but very bad at horizontal, and they have almost the same range, but less damage, and for spike you can use the down-air. Helicopter Kick is bad vertically, horizontaly you have Feint Jump, and the damage is similar to Thrust Uppercut, but less knockback and more damage.
Feint Jump is better, beacuse one of Mii Brawler's weakness is bad Horizontally recovery, so Feint Jump can cover the weakness, and you can mix up some recoveries thanks to FJ. The counter has a weird behavior, and it's not necesary to break some recoveries (because unlike the Mii Swordfighter, you have a neutral-air like Fox). The Head-on-Assault is decent, but it's not necesary, and in the end it can become a predictable move (not counting all the help that the Feint Jump brings)
*Thanks for taking your time to read this Important Aclaration/Explication.*
Very Nice!
My 2 sets will be
1212
1312
Shot Put, Suplex/Drop Kick, Axe Kick, and Feint Jump.
I lose the Crazy Kill confirms but I really value strong recovery/mobility
Subbed
I use 2113
Wow those are the same movesets I use (1212 and 1312),
I like using Shot Put, Onslaught, Soaring Axe Kick, and Counter Throw.
1 thing to note about Onslaught is that there's this really funky interaction if you use it on an opponent pretty much standing on the ledge the final hit will spike them instead of launching them up.
The spike is a fixed distance and on all legal stages isn't lethal however if you build a custom stage with a platform as low as you can allow this spike will insta kill somebody at any %.
Worth keeping in mind if Nintendo ever releases a stage with a ridiculously low blastzone to stage ratio.
Actually, it's like, the second to last hit or so. This is important because the time it takes for the move to finish is greater this way, making it hard to use viably.
Thank you man, I specially love how you test the kill power on dk, unlike the virgis than go "yeah this move has a lot of kill power" and they're hitting a goddamn mewtwo, pikachu, zss or a fox
Nice music line up for the SAK segment.
I use every mii but Brawler the most, I deeply enjoy your content and look forward to more in the future, cheers for helping more people get into my favorite little dipshit
As a 3 year Mii brawler main I used to have counter, heli kick, shotput, and suplex but I changed it to feint jump, axe, suplex, and flash punch, and I can say that it is one of the best move sets in the game. Also you forgot to mention that the flash kick is insanely strong if the opponent jumps into it. Good Video
I recently picked up Mii Brawler and intentionally chose three specials with the best recoveries. Having a variety with the best side recovery tool (BDK), vertical recovery tool (SAK), and diagonal recovery tool (FJ) expands my capability to recover. Lastly I chose shot put because I gotta have a zoning projectile somewhere. So far I’m having more fun with Mii Brawler than with Mega Man.
That's the exact set I use!
Yeah I use that combo. I've now gone from dying at 20% to dying at 30%
@@willycheez7218 haha that’s progress. I guess the best I can say is always FJ before you SAK (unless you’re directly below ledge of course)
A con worth mentioning for Down3 is that you send your opponent backwards. Most counters are good for edge guarding against recoveries like Link, Corrin, Roy, Mario or Dk, but since this one sends backwards, you actually bring them closer to the stage and if your opponent techs it (which most competent players can do) then it may aswell have not been used. (Also the activation hitbox doesn't make this any better)
Imagine all 3 Mii fighters had like 2 or 3 different moveset to use (not specials, actual movesets). Now of course, this is only my opinion so Nintendo doesn't have to add this feature into the game, but it would be nice if they did. I'll try & relate Mii Brawler's movesets from real life, Swordfighter's movesets from Miitopia, & just general fanmade for gunner. That being said, here's the different types of movesets that I'll give the Mii Brawler (doing it based on video):
Brawler would have 3 different movesets along side his default.
Here's the 3 ideal movesets for him:
Boxer: Similar to Little Mac's moveset, but with some elbows and palm hands in his kit
Kicker: A moveset that deals with only his legs, so knees, legs, and feet
Rusher: This will include rapid jabs, and quick attacks like Fox's forward air & rapid jab, Falco's down air & rapid finisher, Joker's up air, Bayonetta's rapid jab, forward tilt, & forward air, & Greninja's back air (These are just a few examples of types of attacks).
I’m glad to hear that Flashing Mach Punch is viable. I’ve been hearing everywhere that you NEED to have Shot Put on Mii Brawler but I just can’t live without my funny instant death move
Thank 4 the amazing tip
I love the nod to WhyDo in the FMP pros section
One additional thing about the SAK is that it's an incredibly viable suicide move, even when you're not a stock ahead. Because of the spike, if you use it off stage, your opponent will usually hit the edge of the screen before you do.
I think it's crazy how much creators like Helios, WhyDo, and Gaegel have influenced brawler's popularity.
My name isn't worthy to be mentioned in the same sentence as WhyDo and Gaegel but thank you that means a lot
i main 1211 brawler, and honestly, the head on assault can be a nice move to use if you just want to go brainless mode because it can be a scary move to approach if you don't have a counter, considering the heavy damage it deals, and the insane amounts of damage you can rack up if you catch someone high midair above stage is pretty nice too. i've won a quite few times because of the damage it deals, and it certainly helps that axe kick and burning drop kick allow for easy recovery without much incedent.
Onslaught also has a spiking hitbox if used while grounded. So if you use said move towards ledge while someone's recovering, it'll spike them down before the final hit.
It also keeps you on the stage, so you don't have to worry about freefalling off ledge when you do this.
Honestly I've used onslaught and I can see that since this video it has gotten a buff for example it doesnt put u in freefall and the startup and end lag has been cut shorter and I find it to be very useful especially if used in a combo with FmP

Just remember to use heli kick on heavies
Ok so: Exploding Side Kick, Onslaught, Helicopter kick and head-on assault, let's see what kind of wacky crap can my brain make from this one
Your opponents will thank you
@@helios3557 idk, i already found a suiting playstyle, you get closer with nair to be somewhat safe and use down tilt to start the combos, if you do backthrow or foward throw you may get close enough to use onslaught (easier with bigger characters), abd onslaught goes well with head on assault as you can feint the opponent into an air dodge that you can catch with the ground variant, it's hard but the technical stuff gives results, is like playing with kirby but with worse tilts and recovery and better damage output. Far from the best, but usable
Onslaught is pretty good for me mostly on edge because one of the hits can spike and kill
Exploding Side Kick imo is the funny neutral special out of the three. Also a flex and hard read type of thing, but it do be a falcon punch (but a kick)
Nice vid! u earned a subscriber! Also, u better get ready for 3 more mii fighters. The current mii fighters are based off of 3 out of the 6 guest mii's from wii sports. MB is based off of guest C, MSF with guest B, and and MG with guest F. That still leaves guests A, D, and E. Ik it's a practically non-existent chance but mii fighter enthusiasts can hope, right?
The most fun mii by far
I think you forgot one more pro for Shot Put...
🎶 SHOT 🎶
🎶 PUT 🎶
🎶 DOES 🎶
🎵 EIGH-TEEN 🎵
I used this before using mii brawler and the only reason I use counter throw (besides the fact I love counter moves) is the "funny dink" thing
4:10
I like how the music completely stops the moment the message, “Do not use this move under any circumstances” pops up.
Im a mii brawler main, and i prefer shot put, the jumping side fire kick side b, the cloud style up b, and feint jump.
The recovery of the fire jump kick side b vs the shield pressure of the command grab are the only two i switch up. Sometimes the whirling kick up b but rarely
So you've also seen wdbthtgp's content. Very cultured
Wow i like MII BRAWLER i like your video Helios!
"Shot Put: Deals solid damage" SHOTPUT DOES EIGHTEEN
This was an excellent video. Thumbs up and subscribe. Side note... 5:23 Do Smash players know what hitting "meaty" means in a fighting game?
How can you say exploding side kick is bad when edge guarding with it is the most satisfying thing ever?
Dont forget the axe kick up b can snap opponents off ledge and spike them under it While snapping you to ledge if youre facing stage
love this guide do it to other miis!
Guides to Mii Swordfighter and Mii Gunner are currently in the works!
once someone shot me and i used counter throw and it grabbed a different person in front of me
My Bomberman Build:
N = Shot Put, it's like bombs without gunpowder or fuse
S = Burning Dropkick, Bomberman needs at least one Fire Move, and Exploding Sidekick ain't gonna cut it
U = Soaring Axe Kick, recovery option
D = Counter Throw, it's funny and I can lowkey use it for an "aerial spot dodge" when the grab hitbox doesn't connect. (Sephiroth...)
I use Onslaught. I know that it's not the strongest move, BUT it fits vers well to my Ultrainstinct Goku Mii (1122).
Imagine a world where:
-suplex kills
-onslaught enables on shields
-feint jump can edge cancel
-Head on assault has enough hitstun to always connect
-bair kills earlier
-nair has even more hitstun
-d tilt has more hitstun
-up air has less endlag behaving like Mario’s
-f smash has less end and startup lag
-and f air auto cancels and links better
But in return:
-no sans, he is replaced with Fortnite guy

My mii brawler is a pig head in a business suit called "Haram", very proud of my boy he had all viable specials before I watched this video.
Personally use: Flashint Mach Punch, Suplex, Thrust Uppercut and Counter Throw
I think this fit my mii MATT FROM WII SPORTS MORE and yeah not big fan of feint jump but i think they needed to buff the counter
bro puts the most high speed and unga bunga mii character to the tune of some classical ahh mii channel theme
Here are the moves that I picked for the Mii Brawler
Netural special:Shot put
Side special:Suplex
Up special:Helicopter kick
Down special:Counter throw
I use suplex, counter, heli kick, and rapid punch. Mii brawler is my favorite
3313
Yes, I know.
It's not about winning or losing, it's about sending a message.
And that message is that anyone who gets hit by my big brain mixups is bad and should feel bad.
Also I don’t like super endlag on my recovery moves.
Here I am watching this video again about to comment this again lololol
Counter throw hitbox= the elbow
damn what a good video
As a mii brawler main, the explosive side kick works well enough for me in competitive scenarios. Even though I lose some times.
I really like front jump alot
ESK is more warlock punch than a falco punch having a little start lag, heavy damage with super armor. And you can charge Burning Dropkick!
SAK is a good way to tell ppl don't approach you from above. You would be amazed at the amount of people trying to approach or jump over me that keep getting hit with SAK. I use suplex to cheese a lot of dk's online and shotput is the best edge guarding tool ever. Find the right spot and just keep throwing it to make sure your opponent doesn't come back to ledge.
The virgin 1312 main:
The *CHAD* 3313 main:
Did you do Sm4sh mii brawler moves? Cause some moves carried to ultimate work different than before. And since smash 4 holds a special place in my heart, I would feally like to know of all the best and viable/unviable options.
I just realized that exploding side kick is a knockoff of falcon punch
It’s less powerful than falcon punch too!
you see, onslaught looks the coolest, therefore it's clearly the best side special
This reminds me of brawlhallas characters. Different signatures, same light attacks
and now i wait and hope for someone to go into a tourney with the worst mii brawler set and WIN
I love how mii brawler can counter ganons warlock punch and some sword users like byleth
The last Down B is litterally the Banjo Counterpick
I wish, but good Banjos won't just throw out wonderwings in neutral for you to catch
Counter Throw also doesn't protect against Olimar. Like, at all. The only moves that activate Counter Throw on Olimar are the ones that don't use Pikmin. Which means a FORWARD AIR breaks the counter.
Wait, are you serious? That's hilarious
@@helios3557 There's a video out there on why Counter Throw is the worst counter in the game. It showcases this perfectly.
AH, i always wondered why sometimes after using onslaught, my fighter glowed for a brief moment. More ya know
Hi, Brawler main here. For those wondering their positions, I would rank HoA above Counter Throw. Though HoA is precise, it’s essentially a shield buster down B. Sure, it may miss. But the speed you can use it at is great. Just today, actually, I was practicing against a CPU with my Brawler and found myself busting its’ shield. TLDR; if you don’t want to use FJ, use HoA.
The mii brawlers will beat everyone up now then
Soaring Axe Kick is stupid as hell and that's why it's one of my favorite moves in the game.
suplex's armor is a bit more than the video lets on, I think it can tank anything up to 18% - meaning it can armor through gigaflare! probably useful in doubles, but I don't play them enough to have a solid grasp on that
Is suplex better than burning drop kick? I’m currently running shotput, soaring axe kick, and feint jump
